Like any country, the people that live in Ireland have come from many places over many centuries. Some of the first people are believed to have come from northern Spain. There is also a large Celtic influence. There is a Viking connection which would connect people with Scandanavia. Many would have come from Britain. So the modern Irish people are a mix of many races and nationalities throughout its history.
